Default Help, I think my toddler broke my seat.

So I was taking my 3 year old to pre-K today and as I was pulling him out he started messing with the power seat while it was in the folded forward position (which he often does).

Later I noticed the seat back will not latch anymore, it just flops forward and backward. Power slide works but the power seat back recline does nothing since the seat is just flopping front to back.

Anyone had this happen?

I had the same thing happen. Did you try moving the seatback forward with the controls? My son did the same thing, and not long enough to fully recline the seat, but I just moved it forward and it fixed it. Very odd.

There is a seatback release switch on both the inside and outside sides of the seats. Make sure one of them isn't stuck in the up/release position.

All is well, I figured it out last night, just kept pushing the electronic seat back switch to forward, I could hear it moving and then it caught and was fine. Seems like jdgamble had the same experience.

When the wife says I dont care what kinda of car you get as long as it has a rear seat, then you buy a 997 C2S cab with the smallest rear seat in the world, you rejoice even if your 3 year old breaks something!
